Is there a way to be able to set a lock on my sons phone so he is unable to turn off and/or delete the Find Friends app?

You can keep him from deleting it by going to Settings>General>Restrictions, tap Enable Restrictions, enter a passcode* then turn Deleting Apps to Off.  This will prevent him from deleting any apps on the phone without the restrictions passcode.  I don't think you'll be able to prevent him from turning off the app, however.
* Important: Make sure you remember/write down the restrictions passcode.  If you ever forget it, you will have to restore the phone as a new device without using a backup to remove it, losing all data on the phone.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • HT201493 When trying to edit one of my "friends" on the Find Friends App. I noticed I can edit pics but not information, one of the numbers I have is wrong, it showed up when I added my daughter and it's not hers, I can't get rid of it to put hers in.

    Is there a way to edit numbers and addresses on Find Friends? I have been trying to fix a problem with my daughters iphone mobile number listed on my iphone. It brought up a number I believe she used for a social site but won't let me enter her actual mobile number. I contact her through her iphone using her phone number.

    If the phone is offline there is no way to track it or send a message to it.  You can place it in lost mode to lock it and send it a message (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f0165), but this will not take place until the phone goes back online, if it ever does.  If it does, you will get an email informing you.

  • HT201493 If I erase the find friends app from my decice does that mean my friends can no longer find me?

    Please answer(: I've Been needing this answer for a while about the find friends app

    From Apple's page on Find My Friends at
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-my-friends/id466122094?mt=8
    The one paragraph that seems to provide the answer is...
    "Find My Friends can send your current location to friends even when the application is in the background and has been optimized to avoid draining your battery."
    So it seems you need to have the app (in background) for your friends to see you.

  • Is there a way to make it automatically set the ouputs of new tracks to Bus 5? (or something other than Stereo Out?)

    When I add a new track, it is automatically set to Stereo Out, is there a way to make it automatically set to Bus 5?  I use a mix that sends everything through busses and every time I add a track it seems I have to adjust this.
    Thanks

    ...and/or setup one or more tracks the way you want.. and then create/save a template and load that when you want to start a new project...
    You can even have Logic (via it's Startup preferences) autoload that template every time you start a new project... by choosing your template as the default one.
    See this page in the User Guide for more info

  • Is there a way to be able to select all mail on iPad/iPhone?

    Is there a way to be able to select all mail on iPad/iPhone all together as opposed to one at a time?

    If you have iOS7 yes. In the mail list you tap 'edit' and then choose hte mails you want, then at the lower right you'll see the option to trash the mails.
    If you do not have iOS7 then you cannot mass delete.

    Is there a way to be able to Edit pictures between different accounts on the same Mac?

    What does 'edit pictures between different accounts' mean?
    You can edit photos in each account. You can share the Library so the same library is available in all accounts. But I'm not sure what you're asking for.

    Put the device back into discovery mode and the iPad will see it again. Make sure the Bluetooth is ON in Settings and look at the devices seen.

  • Using the app "find my I Phone"....is there a way I am able to add my step daughters phone to mine if her mother already has one set w her phone?

    Using the app "find my I Phone"....is there a way I am able to add my step daughters phone to mine if her mother already has one set w her phone?
    I have my children's phones downloaded and working properly using the " Find my I Phone"

    For you to be able to use "find my iPhone" to find your children's devices, you would need to have their appleID and password - and enter it each time.  You can only locate one at a time. 
    You may find better results using "find my friends", as you can display multiple devices in the single app.
    You will need to download find my friends on all the devices, and add & accept the requests, but then you would be able to see everyone.

  • I purchased a new MacBook Pro, and a 2TB AirPort router. I have a 2007 24" iMac that I have been syncing my phone on for years. Is there a way to network these 3 devices so I can sync my phone on my MacBook and access the iMac data?

    I am not familiar with networking in the least. I feel like, being as it is 2015, this is not an unreasonable request. Basically, I do not make much use of my desktop iMac anymore, other than as a backup computer and to sync my phones. My primary computer is my MacBook Pro. I'd like to make my MacBook my primary computer for downloading music, saving and editing photos and images, and syncing my phones, but i'd like to do so without clogging the hard drive on the MacBook.
    Basically, what I am hoping to do is network my iMac, and MacBook Pro through the 2TB AirPort, and sync my phone through the MacBook without losing all data (ideally, I'd like to be able to sync through either computer at will).
    Additionally, something like 100GB of images are stored on the iMac, and I specifically purchased the MacBook with the upgrades to do image editing on, but again, I don't know how to transfer the data to the AirPort, and I don't want to slow down the MacBook by storing all of the data on the laptop.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much.

    Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac.  You should be able to set a password for it. Save it.  Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer,  I suppose,  back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity.  As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
    you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
    This handy article from Apple explains how
    How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
    don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
    and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
    time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine  and go for it.  You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups  of your stuff.

  • Is there a way to see a file browser on iCloud? It says my account is filled up to 5G already and I can't imagine what it moved over to there that was that big.

    Is there a way to see a file browser on iCloud? It says my account is filled up to 5G already and I can't imagine what it moved over to there that was that big.
    I'm wondering if it moved my rhapsody music to the cloud (which is pointless) so I shut off 'document' sharing in case that's the problem, but it's still saying I'm at 5G right now.
    When I go to icloud.com all I see is the dumb app icons, with no clue as to what's taking up that disk space.
    btw, I did not sync photos from the get-go.
    A file browser? please? I need to see my cloud.
    sigh

    Have you enabled Automatic Downloads on all of your devices? This would download all of the books to all of your devices when you download on any device - as long as you are using the same Apple ID and iTunes account on all of your devices.
    Go to Settings>Store>Automatic Downloads>Books>On. When you download a book on one iDevice, it will download to all of your iDevices. This will only work for downloads moving forward from the moment that you turn the setting on. You will have to download the previously purchased books to all of your other devices.
    With iCloud, you can start reading the book on one device and then pickup where you left off on another device.
